Backspace question
Currently my wheels have a 5.47 backspace. I was running BFG 35x12.5x17 tires with a 4" lift with no rubbing issues. I then upgraded my front control arms and now I have rubbing. Will a 1.5 spacer help with the rubbing?

Sweet thanks!!! The new arms are a radius type and do not have the little bend like the factory ones did.
